From TUC website, May 2023:
In her speech at the launch of the network, Maria Exall, TUC President and Chair of the TUC LGBT+ Committee, said:
“Today we pledge ourselves to resist the hate and prejudice that is out there and campaign for a freer, fairer and more equal society for trans and non-binary people.
These are the principles of our movement - standing in solidarity to improve the world of work, and campaigning for progressive social values.
As a cis woman, a lesbian and a feminist, I am a proud trans ally. What upsets me as a woman trade unionist is to see the way that my trans and non-binary siblings are being treated.
